Default Re: 5/10 NL- I like to fold

You say yourself that you have a read on this guy as solid, so do you think that he's checkraising the preflop raiser with something worse than TPTK? Maybe he has a draw, but you only have TPTK with no draw. I'm folding with no hesitation when he comes in for the check-raise; however, you should have only fired out 2/3 pot on the flop - I'd say no more, no less so that it doesn't look like a continuation bet, nor like you're trying to steal the flop. Given that you put that bet in, you grossly misplayed this hand: the ONLY way that you're putting more chips into this pot is if you have him on a bluff which means you push over the top of his raise - but I think that's a donkey move in this situation. But, so would be calling the min raise: what happens if a Q or A comes? Does that make you happy? Willing to lose your stack now that you could easily be facing a full house? Who knows, and because of that, might as well fold and wait for a better spot.
